[ snipped list of requirements ]
I also would like to be able to produce more "mainstream" style apps with
Squeak. There's only one enhancement that I feel I need to do this, and that
is the ability to open multiple host windows from the same Squeak program.
Just top windows (like the singleton one currently used by Squeak), I can do
the rest (menu bar, tool bar, subwindows/widgets, whatever).
Of course, since all the Squeak source is available, I could modify the system
to do multiple host windows myself (in theory). I wonder if this is very to
desirable to others, or if anyone has scoped it out, or if this is likely to
be implemented by central.
